the goodyears suck!!!
cant really say as comparing them,i have the nittos but mine are a 10 ply and very hard,it now rides like a truck!!!!

 

With a wider tire they tend to wonder a bit more. I find the wider it is the more cushion they have. they just have more contact area. In bad weather conditions the wider the tire the worse it is. In snow a wide tire is like a snow shoe, just sits on top. I have 305s on my truck now and in the snow they are horrible!

I personally love a wider tire. they look so much better and I dont know what it is but I like them on the road. My 07 Ram has 13.5" wide tires and I love it

 

i work for discount tire. i've had the hp's and the terra grapplers. your life will be so much better with teh terra grapplers. they will wonder a little bit. but get the bigger ones. bigger is better.
